Forecasts
Bacardys (9/4), Gun Digger (3/1), Tower Bridge (3/1), Whisperinthebreeze (6/1), Borderline Chatho (7/1), Another Barney (25/1)
Perhaps not the strongest race and Gun Digger probably sets the standard on his two efforts in this sphere already. He should be bang there but BORDERLINE CHATHO had something in hand when winning over hurdles last time at Naas and it might be noteworthy connections point him straight over fences. He shapes as if this will be his game, and can now demonstrate it. Tower Bridge will have to jump better, but should be able to before long, while Whisperinthebreeze has improvement to find. Bacardys has not impressed as a chaser but it is eye-catching the Ruby Walsh throws over for the first time in a while and trusts his fencing to hold up.
